Coxsackievirus B (CVB) is the major cause of human myocarditis and dilated cardiomyopathy. Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) is an intracellular sensor to detect pathogen's dsRNA. TLR3, along with TRAF6, triggers an inflammatory response through NF-κB signaling pathway. In the cells infected with CVB type 3 (CVB3), the abundance of miR-146a was significantly increased. The role of miR-146a in CVB infection is unclear. In this study, TLR3 and TRAF6 were identified as the targets of miR-146a. The elevated miR-146a inhibited NF-κB translocation and subsequently down-regulated proinflammatory cytokine expression in the CVB3-infected cells. Therefore, the NF-κB pathway can be doubly blocked by miR-146a through targeting of TLR3 and TRAF6. MiR-146a may be a negative regulator on inflammatory response and an intrinsic protective factor in CVB infection.

Coxsackievirus-A10 (CV-A10), responsible for the hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) pandemic, could cause serious central nervous system (CNS) complications. The underlying molecular basis of CV-A10 and host interactions inducing neuropathogenesis is still unclear. The Hippo signaling pathway, historically known for a dominator of organ development and homeostasis, has recently been implicated as an immune regulator.

The nuclear receptor corepressor (NCoR) forms a complex with histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) that mediates repressive functions of unliganded nuclear receptors and other transcriptional repressors by deacetylation of histone substrates. Recent studies provide evidence that NCoR/HDAC3 complexes can also exert coactivator functions in brown adipocytes by deacetylating and activating PPARγ coactivator 1α (PGC1α) and that signaling via receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B (RANK) promotes the formation of a stable NCoR/HDAC3/PGC1β complex that coactivates nuclear factor kappa-B (NFκB)- and activator protein 1 (AP-1)-dependent genes required for osteoclast differentiation. Here, we demonstrate that activation of Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4, but not TLR3, the interleukin 4 (IL4) receptor nor the Type I interferon receptor, also promotes assembly of an NCoR/HDAC3/PGC1β coactivator complex.

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are vital pattern recognition receptors that play a critical role in the innate immune response against pathogenic attack. Among the bacteria commonly found in the culture process of silver pomfret, Photobacterium damselae subsp. Damselae (PDD, gram-negative) and Nocardia seriolae (NS, gram-positive), can cause large-scale mortality in this fish species.

β-arrestin 2 (ARRB2) is functionally implicated in cancer progression via various signaling pathways. However, its role in lung cancer remains unclear. To obtain clinical insight on its function in lung cancer, microarray data from lung tumor tissues (LTTs) and matched lung normal tissues (mLNTs) of primary non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients (n = 37) were utilized.
